Taking My Skin
Sarah Pucill
England | 2006 | 36mins | Beta | Black & White
I’m not aware of you taking my skin, says the artist’s mother to the camera. An exchange between the two women in which sometimes one is behind the camera, sometimes the other, sometimes both, sometimes neither. An exploration of closeness, of synching, and the threat it poses to the self. |

Portable Stones
Orla Barry
Ireland | 2004 | 63mins | Beta | Colour
A girl escapes from the city and ends up camping in an abandoned graveyard. In the silence she enters a kind of linguistic dream world. She hears voices which carry her through time, they cross the sea to meet her, they are memory carriers. They speak of not speaking, the loss of body, and the difficulty of communication. She starts a new life of waiting, longing and listening. Memory, fantasy and imagination become interwoven. The distance between the voices and herself arouses her longing to further enter the dream space of an undead spirit.
The film dwells on themes such as linguistic intoxication, proximity and distance, melancholy and frivolity, friendship and family relationships, the things that bring us together and those that keep us apart.
